I liked the interwoven stories and the parallels between the Kindertransport children of WWII and the refugee children separated from their parents at the US border in more recent times. It makes me very sad to think of these situations that are still affecting many refugees today.

My #Roll100 books for April. 🎲 24 and 🎲 36 are pending library holds. 🎲 16 is probably going to be purchased since it‘s not at any library branches or libby.

PuddleJumper Library holds are so unpredictable. I've had one on hold since Christmas 1mo
SconsinBookyBadger @PuddleJumper my brick & mortar library is quick on interloans, libby on the hand is slow pace even with available soon ebooks or audio 🐌 1mo

#CoverStories Day 18: Central to this tale is the plight of a father and his young son (who was sent a new pair of #shoes by his mother who is working in the United States) as they travel from their home in El Salvador to Guatemala to the US-Mexican border, ostensibly to be reunited with the mother. My review of this timely tale: https://wp.me/pDlzr-gum

I was influenced into buying the TikTok bookshelf. I love it! I‘m thankful my husband helped me (read: did it himself) put it together because it was complex. Thinking about getting another….its so nice that it doesn‘t have to go against a wall.

vlwelser And where does someone purchase this lovely tiktok bookshelf? 3mo
TiredLibrarian Love this! ❤️ 3mo
Ruthiella You provided much needed emotional support during the building process, I am sure! 😂 3mo
LMJenkins @vlwelser - if you are on TikTok, you could probably just search “rotating bookshelf” and find it! (edited) 3mo

What would the new normal look like? The windows and doors would be suddenly thrown open and humanity would totter back out into the world, hesitant at first. He imagined euphoric crowds taking to the streets and impromptu carnivals as people embraced with joy. But he would not be one of them.

I'd not realised this was a #Pandemic novel.
